A week later.

"Really? Even if they're so popular, they can't ignore us like this!" Zhichen slumped over the table in dissatisfaction, then looked at Qing Tongyin and said, "Boss, were we wrong to sign them?"

"I originally thought that signing with them would increase our fame. Now our fame has increased, but... it's all bad fame!" Lao Ke said helplessly.

Qing Tongyin stood up and said, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault! It's all because of me that so many bad things happened to the studio! I'm so sorry!"

Everyone was shocked by Qing Tongyin's apology.

"Boss, it was everyone's idea to sign them both. It has nothing to do with you! Don't apologize!" Shanshan felt a little sad when he saw Qing Tongyin. Sadness and regret were written on everyone's face.

"Big news, big news!" Xixi suddenly opened the door and came in, sitting on a chair with a computer in her hand, and then the image was played on the big screen.

"Last night at exactly twelve o'clock, Young Master Zi Ling and Pluto announced their relationship, and Weibo exploded. The two well-known male gods in the cosplay world have been living together in secret for many years, and now they have finally come to fruition. All the previous rumors have been dispelled!" Lao Ke read, and attached a photo of Li Ziling and Wang Mingchen kissing below, but it was a little obvious that Wang Mingchen's face looked a little reluctant!

Qing Tongyin suddenly felt that the huge stone pressing on her heart loosened a little, and she sat down on the chair.

"There are more below! They are just the full-length films that Pluto and Young Master Zi Ling have cosplayed before... and some are the BL drama that you and Pluto cosplayed before, Boss. But Pluto and Zi Ling both posted on Weibo to explain! So now... the crisis is over!" Xixi said with a smile.

"Great!" The entire studio was instantly excited, and Qing Tongyin's face also showed a long-lost smile. But... now the two of them still haven't come to the studio... Are they still angry about the contract?

Just as he was thinking about it, two people came in from outside, and the whole studio was in an uproar again. Qing Tongyin looked at the door in surprise. Li Ziling and Wang Mingchen were standing at the door.

"You... are here?" Qing Tongyin stood up and looked at them.

Li Ziling walked in with Wang Mingchen, smiling, "Long time no see! I've been dealing with some family matters! So I want to apologize to the boss for not coming in for so many days!"

"It's okay, as long as the problem is solved!" Qing Tongyin smiled and looked at Hades. Hades also looked over here and nodded.

On the rooftop at night.

Qing Tongyin stood on the rooftop, holding a soda in her hand, a smile on her face, listening to music in the evening breeze.

"I'm sorry about what happened last time!" Pluto suddenly stood behind him and said in a cold voice.

Qing Tongyin turned her head and was startled when she saw him, then smiled and said, "It's okay, I was wrong too... I shouldn't have signed the contract with Li Ziling without telling you..." Then she turned around and took a bottle of soda and threw it to him. Pluto caught it, opened it and took a sip, frowning, "I prefer drinking!"

"I can't drink!" Qing Tongyin said lightly.

The two clinked their glasses and smiled. Suddenly, Pluto spat out the soda he had just drunk, then turned to look at Li Ziling and asked, "When did you come here?"

"What are you secretly drinking here?" Li Ziling took a look and took his soda and took a sip. "Why aren't you drinking?"

"What do you care about me? It's mine. If you want to drink it, take it yourself!" Pluto snatched his soda.

"mean!"

The two of them went crazy.

Qing Tongyin looked at the two of them, smiled, then left with the soda.

------

Early in the morning, Qing Tongyin was woken up by the cold. She got up, tidied herself up, and opened the curtains. She was stunned by the view outside the window. It was snowing!

Is winter already here?

The phone on the table buzzed. Qing Tongyin glanced at the screen and pressed the answer button.

"Xingnian! Can you go home today?" Su Mian said on the other end of the phone.

Qing Tongyin was stunned for a moment, then asked calmly, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"Today is your father's birthday!" Su Mian said in a low voice on the other end.

There wasn't much surprise on Qing Tongyin's face. She had seen the calendar on her phone in the morning and knew it already.

"He won't want to see me!" Qing Tongyin said slowly while lying on the sofa.

There was silence for a moment. "Xingnian is here too, and so are many others. It would be embarrassing if you didn't come... With so many people here, your father won't say anything!"

Qing Tongyin closed her eyes and thought for a long time, "Okay! Send me the address!"

"Um!"

“Beep!”

…

Hotel in City A.

Qing Tongyin arrived at Qingshi’s birthday place according to the address sent by Su Mian. She pushed open the door and saw everyone inside having fun. But the whole house fell silent when Qing Tongyin appeared. Qing Tongyin sneered in her heart. She really shouldn’t have come!

"Come on, come and sit down!" Su Mian waved to Qing Tongyin to sit next to her, and Qing Tongyin walked over.

He clearly saw that the smile on Qingshi's face suddenly disappeared when she saw him, and she looked impatient.

"I haven't seen Tongyin for a long time. You've grown so pretty!" Ma Qingyi looked at Qing Tongyin with a smile.

Qing Tongyin looked at her and smiled, "Godmother is still so young!"

Ma Qingyi suddenly looked at Mo Yufeng with a cold face and said, "Look, the child can speak better than you!"

Mo Yufeng looked at her helplessly. "What's wrong with me? What did I say to you?"

"You said this morning that I had crow's feet and that I had become ugly! Now you want to deny it?" Ma Qingyi patted his shoulder and said angrily.

Mo Yufeng was defeated by her. "Okay, okay, I was wrong, I was wrong!"

"If you want to show your affection, can you do so at home?" Mo Xingnian said helplessly while drinking.

Qing Tongyin looked at them with a hint of sadness in her eyes. She really envied them...

Mo Xingnian drank his wine, glanced at Qing Tongyin casually, and then lowered his head.

"Don't you have a girlfriend, Tong Yin?" Ma Qingyi suddenly asked, as if mentioning it casually.

"I'm a bit busy, not yet!" Qing Tongyin said lightly.

"So, is there someone you like?"

"……No!"

"You're busy all day long!" Qingshi, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly said this, breaking the good atmosphere again. Su Mian frowned and pushed him, "If you can't speak, don't speak!"

Qingshi became quiet and didn't say anything, but his face was still very sour.

The birthday party ended just like that, in the evening.

Mo Yufeng and his family of three also left. Qing Tongyin was about to leave as well, but Su Mian grabbed him and said, "It's been a long time since the three of us have sat together like this without any outsiders. We finally got together, so let's talk!"

"What did you say?" Qingshi stood up, asked in a questioning tone, and prepared to leave.

"Come back here!" Su Mian suddenly yelled. Qingshi was stunned for a moment and returned to his seat helplessly.

Su Mian looked at him, stood up and said, "You two should take advantage of today to have a good talk!" Then she left. As she left, she glanced at Qingshi with a threatening look.
